Balloons

Today Stockton took us to the balloon festival. He had to plan an evening out for one of his scout requirements. Everyone had a great time. The girls got their face painted and the kids each got a balloon animal. They played on jumpy things and watched the hot air balloons inflate. We didn't wait in line to get a ride because it was too long! And they only took you up ten feet. Tomorrow they are balloon races and other such nonsense.

When we got home, I tied a super long string onto the balloons (not the balloon animals). Now, when they go to the top of the vaulted ceilings, it is no problem. Why didn't I think of this years ago?

I know! He was on the run. He was great though. He took such good care of Preston, and he was happy and pleasant the entire time - even when we were cut off in the balloon line.
